New England Patriots

Nobody dealt better than the Patriots this weekend: B.

The Garret Greenfield selection is the head-turner. The Patriots reached 38 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

The Foster pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.4 · Pick 4 · Joe Alt · OT · rank 3
In No. 4 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Xavier Legette · WR · rank 74
Xavier Legette in Round 2, Pick 6 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.2 · Pick 66 · Spencer Rattler · QB · rank 68
They took Spencer Rattler at par in slot 66, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R3.15 · Pick 79 · Renardo Green · S · rank 112
A wild overpay on Renardo Green in the 79th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.27 · Pick 90 · Isaac Guerendo · RB · rank 111
Isaac Guerendo at the Round 3 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.4 · Pick 104 · Theo Johnson · TE · rank 136
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Theo Johnson. The roster fit checks out.
R4.22 · Pick 122 · Mohamed Kamara · DL-EDGE · rank 130
Mohamed Kamara in the Round 4 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R4.36 · Pick 136 · Javon Foster · OT · rank 121
Value with a capital V on Javon Foster in pick 136, a genuine coup. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.6 · Pick 142 · Luke McCaffrey · WR · rank 165
A real head-scratcher, Luke McCaffrey in the 142nd pick is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.9 · Pick 145 · Justin Eboigbe · DL-EDGE · rank 150
They paid sticker price for Justin Eboigbe in pick No. 145, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.7 · Pick 182 · Garret Greenfield · OT · rank 220
Garret Greenfield at No. 182 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R7.4 · Pick 224 · Tyrice Knight · LB · rank 216
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyrice Knight at Round 7, Pick 4. A minor itch, scratched.
R7.9 · Pick 229 · Joshua Cephus · WR · rank 256
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Joshua Cephus well ahead of where he belonged. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R7.17 · Pick 237 · Dylan McMahon · C · rank 264
They reached into another round for Dylan McMahon, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
